Title: Vet Recommendation
Post by: Bookworm007 on June 18, 2015, 07:41:26 PM: I am getting a Chocolate Lab in two weeks and want to figure out a vet before she comes home. The vet we used with previous dogs has retired so I must choose a new one. I have visited a few vets so far but was hoping that my fellow hunters in Clark County could recommend good vets. I would prefer a vet in East Vancouver or Battle Ground. Thank You!!!

The VCA in Battle Ground isn't bad either but they're corporate and often very busy as I understand it. Your only other option in BG is back behind Main on one of the side streets. Nice looking facility, no idea how the staff is.

But I have no knowledge or experience with them but if you're looking now you know. Orchards Veterinary is off of 503, by the AutoZone, that's the other in east Vancouver that I might check out that is "close" to BG, but again, I have no experience with them.

Cascade Park has boarding and animal rehab (nice for post op knee surgeries etc).

By far the best one I have found is Amazia Animal Hospital in Battle Ground off of 503(ish). All my personal and client dogs go there. I have never had a bad experience and they are very fair. Cannot speak more highly of them. Good luck.
